    met Brian when I was a kid. My dad used to know people in the production industry. I must have been in about 10 and my sister was 6. We asked him if he'd ever seen a koala in real life. At the time we didn't know he was British. He was really good about it an explained he had only ever seen them in the zoo and they weren't a common sight in Australia. I ended up going to the show which was the razors edge tour and my dad had me sit with the sound crew in the middle of the arena. There was another kid there in a wheelchair who was placed on top of some of the crates to watch the show. They did this acdc money drop from the ceiling during 'money talks' and because we were in a closed off area there was lots lying around so I collected a bunch and gave some to people behind the barriers. I was so shy as a kid I didn't talk to that kid but wanted to share it with him because he was really stuck where he was. Always felt bad about that. I think my dad said he was a relation of the Young family afterwards. Out of all the concerts I went to over the years the ACDC ones were always the most entertaining.

    I was at the show in Syracuse. It was my first concert, on the Back in Black Tour, October 5th, 1980. The support band was Gamma, who included Ronnie Montrose (ex-Montrose), Davey Pattisson (who also played with Robin Trower) and Denny Carmassi (later of Heart). So it could have been one of them "at one with the tree"!

    I always loved the story Brian told on Top Gear. He was doing a gig in Russia and needed to take a piss. It was dark and he couldnt really see that well. Later he found out he pissed on Sputnik lol

    • @creepyoursmile1654
      @creepyoursmile1654 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Sputnik was the first man made satellite launched into space in 1957. Sputnik is Russian for "Satellite". It is an object of national significance (and pride) for the Russians, so they were obviously angry about it lol Its kind of like when Ozzy Osbourne pissed on the Alamo. The only difference is when Ozzy did it, he did it on purpose lol

    • @AnyoneCanSee

      @AnyoneCanSee 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +CreepYourSmile - I just googled the story and that is indeed what he said, even describing it as just a black ball. He states he was outside at the time.
      I'm afraid to say he is completely misremembering. There is no replica of Sputnik outside in Moscow, as he claims. There is a huge monument to inspired by Sputnik and the first man in space Yuri Gagarin, and Russian space exploration in general called, Monument to the Conquerors of Space.
      But, it is massive, like 100 metres high and he'd have just been peeing on the side of it.
      I really can't think what he is thinking about, but I'm guessing he was pissed and is completely misremembering what happened. I can't think what else it could be.

    • @creepyoursmile1654
      @creepyoursmile1654 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Robert J. Williamson
      Yeah, being pissed can garble the memory, so thats probably it lol I believe he said he was drinking at the time, so there we go :)
      Its still a fun story, even it its not true. The best stories tend to be fiction anyway. Even if they are based in fact, there still tends to be a bit of fiction thrown in for dramatic effect (weather its intentional or not).
